Beauty franchises: what they cost and what they report
Every Beauty franchise on this site, compared on the same terms and read from each brand's own Franchise Disclosure Document. Sorted from least to most expensive to open.
48 brands
$459,000 typical cost to open
40 publish earnings figures
3.7% of outlets leave in a typical year
Typical means the middle brand, half above and half below. Cost to open uses the middle of each brand's estimated range. 34 of the 40 brands that publish earnings report a median of annual outlet earnings; the rest report averages, other measures, or a median on another basis, such as per job or per month, and we do not convert any of those into an annual median. The departure rate leaves out brands with fewer than 10 outlets.
